More DescriptionUnlike the other gospel writers, Luke never met Jesus. His was a belief built on faith alone, much like that of modern believers. His gospel, filled with stories of Jesus' divinity, speaks to the hearts of today's Christians. In Luke's Story, we follow him as he rises from Greek slave to university-educated physician. Along the way, he meets Saul of Tarsus, a formidable Hebrew debater who becomes both Luke's role model and greatest competitor. Luke is intrigued, but skeptical, when he hears stories of a man who performs great miracles of healing. But the dramatic conversion of Saul, and the miraculous healing of one of his own patients by prayer, irreversibly changes Luke's spiritual life.Luke pledges himself to Christ and makes a life-changing choice: he will write a Gospel based on years of interviewing believers about their conversions, and hearing stories of Jesus' life. The result is a scripture rich in the miraculous stories of Jesus that touches people all over the world today.
